Ress Life Investments seeks to generate high single-digit returns uncorrelated to traditional asset classes by acquiring US life insurance policies on the secondary market. The alternative investment fund has generated an annualized return of seven percent in the past five years to reach its net-of-fees return target of seven percent in US dollars, with returns exhibiting a correlation of only 0.07 with the MSCI World and 0.04 with the S&P 500. According to Mårtenson, “an increasing number of investors are looking to diversify their risks with equity markets at an all-time high.” He goes on to emphasize that “the stable returns and low volatility in returns generated by Ress Life Investments can serve as an alternative to fixed-income investments.”
